Hurricane Idalia shows nature may provide the best shoreline protection
Researchers at the University of Florida found that nature-based "living shoreline" projects significantly reduced wave energy and were largely undamaged during Hurricane Idalia last year.

Great explanation at a level I can grasp. It honestly makes me wish I was better educated so I could really get it.

Science is amazing. Someone figured out you could use groups of galaxies as a gravitational “magnifying lens” that allows Hubble to see deeper into space.

Today I learned there are other Colorado School of Mines alums here that I never knew about. Not sure I count though…not undergrad.
